“If there were a celebrity of the evolutionary world, Mr. Dawkins would certainly be it.”

—The New York Times

Join world-renowned evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins as he
presents his first-ever memoir, An Appetite for Wonder.
The author of such seminal works as The Selfish Gene
(dubbed “the best work of popular science ever written” by the
New York Review of Books) and the atheist treatise The
God Delusion arrives at BAM to launch this chronicle of his
own intellectual awakening. From birth to the halls of Oxford,
trace the development of the man the London Evening
Standard called “one of the most outstanding intelligences in
modern science.”

An Appetite for Wonder is slated for release on September
24. By purchasing your ticket and book together, you’re securing a
copy of the book a full day before its worldwide release. Your book
(retail value $27.99) is included in the special ticket price of
$40, and will be signed by the author following an evening of
discussion and Q&A.
